Hello All, it's been a while since i've posted.
I have a dilemma, for the past 20 years i have had in my possession 2 old documents concerning the invention of FM multiplex "stereo" broadcast standard. they are printed by Zenith Electronics and were handed out at a NAB convention circa 1960/61.
The Titles are;
Before the Federal Communications Commission
Docket No 12517
In the matter of: Inquiry into the ammendment of parts 2,3 and 4 of the commissions rules and regulation and the standards of good engineering practices concerning fm broadcast stations to permit to engage in non-broadcast activities on a multiplex basis, March 15 1960
52 pages

and the 2nd is docket no 13506
Comments on Stereophonic multiplex FM broadcasting oct 28 1960
114 pages
these docs were in a plastic sprial bound binding but that has long decayed
Long story short would these be valuable to someone or should i file them in the round file. they are both in poor condition water stains etc. I got them back in 1995 when i helped clean out a old radio station in Sarasota FL WQSA these have been bounceing around in my storage bldg for long enough. I was wondering if i should post this in the classified section?

thanks
Logan

Please scan them and PM me for an email address. They need to be scanned and posted for the knowledge base.

I'd gladly pay shipping + something (hows 5-10$ sound?) to make it worth your time to keep those out of the round file (and put them in my hands).

BTW:The second one is exactly 31 years older than me. :)

I've replied to your PM.

If I get it then I may be able to scan it for interested parties and maybe post it here if the files are small enough to attach.
